I can ride like that--NOT

Going to be in NM for trials riding in late January. Friend sent me this link. http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x12...ouse-toni-bou- Its 10 minutes long so don’t watch the whole thing but at least skip to the spools. I have ridden spools in my younger days but not like these guys. Hmmm I could probably ride like them if I got a new bike EDITthe link isnt working. Rats.

I used to ride trials but my body told me it was time to stop. I had one of the first water cooled fully disk brake bikes in my area at the time. It was a Beta Zero.
The vid makes me want to go again.

Saw one awhile back where he miscalculated and he and his spotter took quite a spill. Nobody got badly hurt except the bike.

trials are awesome, those guys are good. we ran into a pack of them one time rock crawling our jeeps in disney, ok. these guys were taking there bikes up the trails our 42" tire jeeps were having some difficulty on. its really cool seeing that kinda thing live and close up. and they dont even put their feet on the ground or sit.

I remember playing one of those little flash games where you would do stuff like that... I thought it was just in the game, and that they would never do stuff like that in real life. Thats just... amazing! I wonder how many years of practice that takes to get comfortable enough to go into just about any environment and be able to ride on a course like that.
